Yes, this is definitely recommended reading.

To the OP: Ubuntu uses the Debian packages I maintain, but I do not
follow the Ubuntu forums or receive Ubuntu bug reports.  So, if you
use the package gnat-glade and have specific problems with it, please
file a bug in the *Debian* bug tracking system.  Instructions are at
http://bugs.debian.org.

Also, I did receive some help with gnat-glade; Adrian Wrigley wrote a
nice readme file: /usr/share/doc/libgarlic2006/README.Debian.gz.  For
those interested who don't have a Debian installation, it is also in
the Monotone server at http://www.ada-france.org/viewmtn.
